| Comments: |
Just wet, sticky snow. The longest stretches were along Sawyer River Road, which was closed. Dragged.
Met a group of three. They were also dealing with the "snowballing-effect" on their snowshoes. There was a larger group, I believe all were barefooted. This was the first time, this winter, that I wore my snowshoes. I guess if I had to do it again, I'd wear my crampons, since the wet, sticky snow would've stuck to the microspikes also. C'est la vie. |
